Last August, Hanover-area farmer Ben Klunk found something he had never seen in his 80 years of farming — a four-headed ear of corn.

And the corn curiosities have continued this year at the Klunk farm on Bender Road with the discovery of a three-headed ear of corn.

"It was a really big surprise," Klunk said about the strange corn he found earlier this month. "Who knows what will happen next year."

Klunk plans to dry his latest find and put it on display with the ear he found last year.
